I have tried everything possible. tried resetting my network settings and even the whole phone but my phone wouldn't connect to my wifi at home but will connect to other wifi's when i'm out. my sisters both have the same iphone and theirs work perfectly.
My iPhone wouldn't connect to my wifi at home but connects to others when i go out. i have tried resetting my whole phone and network settings but still wouldn't work. Everyone in my house has an iPhone and theirs work perfectly. I need help. it randomly started working yesterday after not connecting for 4 days and suddenly it stopped working again today
The two things to try first are renewing your network lease, forgetting the network and if that doesn't work to reset all networks. You might have tried one of these but I'll repeat the steps just to make sure.
Settings > Wi-Fi > tap the blue arrow to the right of your network name > Renew Lease
If that doesn't work then
Settings > Wi-Fi > tap the blue arrow to the right of your network name > Forget this Network
If that doesn't work
Settings > General > Networks > Reset All Networks > then reset your iPhone by
Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart.
I hope one of these will help.

My wifi will not change from off to on. I have done everything possible, including resetting my network settings. Internet is working fine on tablet etc.
Hello dthlah,
Thanks for the question. Based on the information you have provided, it sounds like your Wi-Fi option on an iPhone 4S is greyed out. The following article explains this issue and potential resolution:
iOS: Wi-Fi settings grayed out or dim
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1559
Follow these steps to resolve the issue:
1. Verify that airplane mode is off by tapping Settings > Airplane Mode.
2. Reset the network settings by tapping Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
Note: This will reset all network settings, including Bluetooth pairing records, Wi-Fi passwords, VPN, and APN settings
3. Ensure that your device is using the latest software. To do so, connect your device to your computer and check for updates in iTunes.
4. If your issue is still unresolved, perform a software restore in iTunes.
If you are still unable to turn Wi-Fi on, please contact Apple for support and service options.
Thanks,

My Ipod has been disconnected from the internet. All efforts to date have failed,including resetting my network settings and trying to log in again.
Does the iOS device connect to other networks? If yes that tends to indicate a problem with your network.
Does the iOS device see the network?
Any error messages?
Do other devices now connect?
Did the iOS device connect before?
Try the following to rule out a software problem:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Power off and then back on your router
.- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
- iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
- Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network
- iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem and it does not connect to any networks make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

Having horrible service with 4GLTE I have had 3G for several weeks (I am not the only person I know having this problem), I have reset my network settings and it did not resolve the issue. I am also unable to send SMS and text messages without them either failing or not sending at all. Is there an outage in the Cleveland, Ohio area (zip codes 44129, 44134, 44137) or anything else I can do to resolve this issue?
Not that I'm a Verizon employee, but I have experience in the field. An LTE tower will only extend up to, on a perfect day, with no elevation, 6-7 miles. On a typical day, you will be lucky at four (4) miles. The three ZIP codes you've given are all within about a 12 mile radius. That would mean that 2-3 towers are currently down at the same time, and Verizon would know about it within the hour. Being it's Cleveland, I'm sure they would receive numerous calls regarding an outage of that size.
My point is that if you're having issues in all three ZIP codes, chances are it's a phone issue. If you're handset is simply not receiving LTE, but still receiving 3G, that would signify a SIM card issue. You need to get your SIM card replaced. -
I reset my network settings, and when I went to join my wifi network i typed in the correct password, but it will not let me join. Other iphones and devices can however....

All of a sudden I have to be Very close to a modem to recieve wifi. Tried resetting network settings, no joy. This is true for all modems everywhere. Any ideas?
Your home wifi may possibly be having issues. Call the company that does your wifi and they should send someone out to service it.

- Do other devices connect to the network successfully?

If I reset my network settings can I sync my phone to any computer?
My phone is only allowed to be sync to one computer but I dont have access to it anymore and it wont let me sync it to my new computer, if I reset the network settings will i be able to sync my phone to my new computer no problem?
No, that has nothing to do with syncing. You need to copy the iTunes folder from the old computer to the new one. If you really don't have access then you will need to sync to the new one, which will erase everything on your iPhone, then start loading everything back on. You can download apps, iTunes music, Books, etc. at no charge.

ipad is locked up with photo stream showing on the screen, can not turn off or use it at all.
Hi BonBonW,
Hold down the Home button and the Power button and continue to hold them down until the Silver Apple appears. This will reset your phone (no data will be lost or altered).
Cheers,

Prior to it becoming completely nonfunctional I could just restart it and it would connect properly to the wifi. Then that work around stopped working. Then I went into general settings and reset all network settings and that worked for a while. When that stopped working I let the battery drain completely and then after a full charge it worked again for a while. Now nothing. What should I try next that will hopefully fix this issue more permanently?
Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
• Launch Settings app
• Tap on Wi-Fi
• Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
• In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

As of Oct 20, 2012, my calendars will not load from my Macbook Pro to my iPod. Tried resetting to factory settings and installing just my work calendar... unsuccessful. Genius at my Apple store tried a DFR (?) type reset... still no calendars. All other functions of the iPod is working fine. Any suggestions?
10.8.2. And I have been keeping up with updates, but I thought they all involved fixes to Logic Pro and Aperture (but there may have been an update to OXS...is there any way to see when fixes were released?) The Genius's at our store were stumped and told me to contact Apple.... but without Apple care, I will be charged a fee.... and my iPod is in pristine shape. Is there a way to request Technical support for a problem they are possibly causing?

My wifi button has been greyed out ever since updating to iOS7, is there anyway to undo this update? I have tried resetting my network setting numerous times and it still doesnt work!! Any help?
Thanks.You are correct. This is a very bad hardware error of the WiFi Chip on the Logic Board. The Chip malfunctioned or was previously damaged, but the initialization error was not detected until you Update/Restore the iPhone recently. The Problem was there, just not detected yet. The repair or replacement of the WiFi Chip is very difficult. Because Apple does not repair iPhone 4S, they only replace iPhone 4S, it costs $199.
